Its inventors say it could be used to create 3D models of urban environments for applications like Google Street View, but take one look at Paraswift — the vertical-wall-climbing, base-jumping robot featured in the video above — and you'll know it to be true: come the robot uprising, we humans are totally humped.

Paraswift is the result of a collaboration between Disney Research and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zurich, and uses a special rotor called an "impeller" to create a vortex that lets it stick to the wall as it climbs. Oh, and it can also deploy a paraglider to stealthily dispatch its unsuspecting victims from above return safely to earth.

The robot's combined abilities also make it the world's first compact robot capable of both climbing and flying. I mean come on...a wall-climbing, base-jumping robot that makes its own tornadoes? The human race doesn't stand a chance.
